EGM’s TAKE: Santa Monica has managed the capture the very essence of the game’s single-player and somehow transfer it into multiplayer. The epic one-on-one battles, the giant enemies and a lot of gore. If you’re going to attempt to add multiplayer to a franchise, then this is how you go about it. We can’t wait to see more.

What do you think? Are you happy with the addition of multiplayer? Let us know in the comments below.

Matthew Bennett finally got his big break with EGM three years ago, following years of volunteer work for various sites. An ability to go many hours without sleep and a quick wit make him ideal for his role as associate editor at EGMNOW.com. He often thinks back to the days when the very idea of this career seemed like nothing but an impossible dream. Follow him on Twitter @mattyjb89. Meet the rest of the crew.
